Imax B6 Charger: Charging MaxPower and Vipow 12V 7Ah Gel Batteries - Voltage Parameters

Hello, I read a lot of topics on the forum about gel batteries and their charging, I came across conflicting information that imax B6 modeling chargers can be used to charge gel batteries and not ...
Such chargers have the Pb setting (program), you can choose, for example, "6p 12V", but the max charging voltage is 14.7V and the discharge voltage is 9V.
From the topics that I read, you can deduce differently about the charging voltage, some write 13.8V, others 14.4V or even 15V. As for the discharge voltage, it is 10.5V in total, although someone wrote 11.1V.

I have typical gel batteries, MaxPower and Vipow 12V 7Ah brands, on their housings there is a note: Standby mode - 13.6-13.8V, cyclic operation 14.5-14.9V

Can I easily connect such batteries to charging with the imax B6 charger, which has the Pb program with the above-mentioned parameters, and leave them for a few / several hours, without fear for their "health"?

These are typical AGM batteries, not gel ones, and you can safely land them with 14.7V.

In fact, my mistake, they are AGM batteries there is no gel in them ... The charger, after exceeding 14.4V, reduces the current, so probably everything is ok. What about the discharge voltage?

Good question.
These batteries are designed for buffer operation and deep discharge sulphates them very much, so the less the better. Try not to discharge below 11.5V, then recharge as soon as possible.

I have an IMAX b6 and I'm loading it with a 12ah gel battery. The charger detects that a voltage of 14.7 is over. After about 10 hours, I got 14.7 and 2800 mAh came in, the landing current dropped to 0.3 And after another 2 hours, the 3100 man flies slowly on. That is, already unplug or wait until the counter ah will not move ???

Added after 4 [hours] 31 [minutes]:

Now it is 1:00 p.m. and 4100 has already entered, the tension is still 14.7

It will save and stop loading.

For this rehearsal, I only loaded the lipo and everything was smacking.
Now I decided to charge a normal small battery, it seems to me that it is better to charge like a regular power supply that joined the car.

I used this for a 55Ah car battery. He gives advice easily. And you load in CC CV mode

Loads with Pb program

This is the correct program. First, it charges with a fixed current, then stabilizes the voltage and the current decreases. When charging is complete, it will beep and show how much Ah has been loaded into the battery.

Exactly, they're not gels, although most people don't talk about them like that, but technically it's AGM. And a lot depends on charging: www.akumulatoryzelowe.pl/faq/ladowarka-akumulatora-zelowego.php, it is worth not to spoil the equipment or shorten its life if you wish.

I do not understand why this link, nothing German there. These are just a very general outline of chargers for gel batteries in which imax B6 fits most. It is true that it does not automatically resume charging after a power failure, but, for example, it has temperature control (after purchasing accessories).
